"Alright, all you have to do is speak clearly and loud enough so the microphone can hear you." A military man told her.

The girl scooted up her chair, making herself closer the the microphone." Now....Your name is Jenny Delean, right?" The man in white standing across from her on the other side of the metal table asked.

She lifted her head to meet the man's gaze." When can I see my sister again?"

The man sighed and quickly answered back."I told you already as soon as you tell us what happened.. Now please."

The girl looked down at the table."Yah...that's my name, but please call me J.D." J.D answered back.

The man smiled and nodded." Alright then, J.D it is." He kindly said.

" What can I call you?" J.D asked.

The man in white shifted his gaze from the girl's aquird stare. Instead he pretended to be looking at something important on his clip board." Umm, well you can call me Dr. Green, alright J.D?" He finished by looking back at her.

She only replied with a simple nod." Well we should probably get started now." He told J.D.

She nodded." Alright then," Dr. Green moved towards the table, and closer to J.D." You should probably start when you first started to notice this was happening." He ended.

" OK...." She said clearly and loud enough for the speaker to hear.

Strange things

Nothing ever seemed to change in the little town I lived in, it was barely even known anywhere. Many people didn't even know there was a state called Wyoming in the US, or most importantly the little town of 50,000 people called Casper. They probably only know the state, by going to the 1st ever state park, Yellow Stone national park. Probably everyone thinks Wyoming is covered in vast forests, huge lakes, and lots of animals like bears, moose, wolves, and so on. But the truth is that most of Wyoming is covered by prairie grass, and mountains. There's barely any water, we've been in a 50 year drought so far, and it was once illegal to have your sprinklers on curtain days. I can remember my mom telling me." Now Jenny, don't waste any water. Or the police might get mad."

I know now she was only joking but back then, when I was little, I really believed her. I thought I had to sneak around and make sure I wasn't being watched just to get a drink of water! I know you probably think that's weird but I was so bored I just had to do something, even if it was really stupid.

Lets focus on the town of Casper. Casper was north of some mountains, and the mountains that where close enough to the city where called Casper Mountains, really original huh? The north Platte river runs through Casper and that's where we get our water. Most of Casper is covered in prairie grasses, and hills. Its not flat at all like the great plains, so we're right at the very edge of it. We"re in between the mountain area and the plains area. In the fall the ground is usually covered in red leaves and most of the trees are bare, except for the ever greens. In the winter its very cold, it snows and some times there are blizzards. In the spring its still cold and there still is some snow, the time when the snow is gone for good during the spring is either march or April. When the snow is gone and the heat is one, there are flowers that didn't die blooming, some trees still don't have there leaves yet, and all the animals return. In the summer it is very very hot. Its a dry heat and sometimes we won't have an entire month of rain. This is usually drought time and my family and I go on vacation during this time. One time we went to the Bahamas!^_^

But no matter where we went and how much fun we had, my mom would bring us back to that boring town.' J.D. please just start on the incident already...Please..' Dr. Green interrupted.

She smiled as she began to talk of what had happened.

It was April 11Th and the warm winds began to come back to chase away the cold long winter. It started just the same as any other day. I got up at about 6:50 am to get dressed for school, which started at 8am. After I was dressed I would go into the kitchen to eat breakfast. Then after that my mom would drive me to school. She'd drop me off at the corner and then I would walk the rest of the way.' Dr. Green gave J.D a harsh look.'

When I first noticed something strange was after 3rd lunch and the school workers let the students outside for a little bit. I was standing at the field with my friends over by the fence. I stared at the other side of the road. I always wanted to just walk off of the shcool campase and go home, but I never had the guts to. I listned to my friends, if you can call them that, chat about thier preveious classes and stuff. I was a dreary daze between awake and asleep. My eye lids opening and closing making each blink longer and longer.
